On the river bank, an old man banged a gong and called to the villagers who were digging the river channel to pack up their tools and prepare to get off work and have a meal.
People put down their hoes in an orderly manner and climbed out of the mud pit with smiles on their faces.
Even though they have been working hard all day, everyone has a simple smile on their face.
The progress of the project is very fast, and there is no so-called supervision.
No one is lazy.
Because everyone knows that this is a river course built for Mr. Li, the great master of Qingtian. Moreover, the river course is not built in vain. The wages are very high, one hundred pence a day. It is done on the same day and paid on the same day.
They were also given three meals a day, and they were all cooked.
Who is not willing to work now? Someone has already calculated it. The construction period is 100 days, 100 yuan per day, three meals a day, no expenses.
After this work period, I already have a wife.
The responsible old river worker also said that as long as the quality is guaranteed and the construction period is completed on time, he will give someone an extra red envelope.
Now many people in Yuyang City are eager to come and rush to do it.
When we walked to the dining hall, there were steamed pancakes, sorghum rice, fish and vegetables in the pot. Everyone lined up, took bowls and chopsticks, prepared the meal, and sat aside to eat contentedly.
If it's not enough, you can continue to add more.
"Well, it smells so good!"
On the haystack, a bald man hugged the bowl and chopsticks and began to eat.
The man was very tall, and his muscles exposed in the sun were bulging. Compared with other people around him, he was like a little giant.
Not only was the man tall and burly, but the bowl in his hand was two times larger than an ordinary person's bowl. It was just like a soup basin, filled with food.
Before the man could finish eating, the river worker Lao Yang came over with a bucket: "Big man, is that enough? Please add some more food."
"Oh, good, good!"
Upon seeing this, the man hurriedly raised the bowl and sent it up. Looking at the filled food in the bowl, a simple smile suddenly appeared on his angular face.
"Eat enough. If that's not enough, there are freshly baked pancakes over there. Mr. Li never deducts our rations. The more you work, the more you will eat!"
Faced with the man's astonishing appetite, River Worker Lao Yang didn't feel any distress at all.
On the contrary, if a man does the same work as five people, it is normal to eat more.
"Okay, okay! Mr. Li is so kind, unlike those unscrupulous entrepreneurs!"
The man nodded and said.
"What? Why do you want to wake up at night?"
Lao Yang looked confused. This kid was good at everything, except that he always said some weird words in his mouth that he couldn't understand.
The man seemed to realize that he had made a mistake and waved his hand: "Hometown dialect, hometown dialect!"
Lao Yang shook his head with a smile and continued to add food to others while carrying the rice pail.
When Lao Yang walked away, he saw a middle-aged man holding a rice bowl and sitting carefully on the haystack.
The middle-aged man looked around to make sure that no one was paying attention here, and then whispered: "Shi Jin! Don't be so hasty in your work recently. The helmsman means to let us hide. You are acting too conspicuous."
Shi Jin didn't say anything and just buried his head in eating.
When Wang Sheng saw this, he couldn't help showing a bit of displeasure. He was one of the twenty-eight constellations in the sect, and his status was second only to the helmsman.
This newbie really didn't take him seriously.
However, although he was unhappy, Wang Sheng did not dare to do anything to Shi Jin. Although this guy had just joined the religion, he was a rare martial arts master and followed a pure martial arts route.
Moreover, he is still a martial arts idiot. Even the helmsman did not take advantage of this kid, so he is no match for him.
The helmsman was very optimistic about him and even promised that he would introduce the leader to him after he came out of seclusion.
These words made Wang Sheng feel particularly jealous. He had been a member of the cult for four or five years, but he had never seen the leader of the Moduo cult. Why should he be a newcomer?
At this time, another dark-faced man holding a bowl came over and squatted behind the two of them.
Wang Sheng knew this person as Jiang Feiyu from the Dipper Star.
"Don't talk nonsense here. The helmsman has sent news that there are changes in Yuyang City, and asked us to withdraw from Yuyang one after another early in the morning."
"Evacuate Yuyang?"
Wang Sheng was startled and couldn't help but turned his head, but then he remembered that the helmsman had told his brothers not to gather in large groups and not to recognize each other casually when sitting together. He quickly turned his head back and lowered his voice and said: "We are twenty-eight
The stars have finally come together, so why should we retreat??"
"Yes, I won't have enough to eat after we're evacuated! I won't even make enough money for the expenses."
Shi Jin muttered while holding the bowl.
"We have to go, the helmsman said, the Yuyang City God climate has become a reality, suppressing Yuyang's luck, it's too late for us to make trouble!"
When Wang Sheng heard what Jiang Feiyu said, he suddenly felt angry.
"It's all my fault that boy named Li Zheng. He spent several years setting up the situation, but this boy messed up everything!"
The more Wang Sheng thought about it, the angrier he became. He was so angry that he picked up the bowls and chopsticks in his hands and took two mouthfuls of food into his mouth.
"Hey, the helmsman also said that this person has a long history of popularity, and his official career goes straight to the blue sky. He is not just an idle person. He just told us not to cause trouble and leave quietly."
Jiang Feiyu noticed the murderous intent in Wang Sheng's words and immediately persuaded him.
In fact, he didn't want to kill this kid to vent his anger.
For this day, the Moda Cult had already started planning, but just when the fruit was about to ripen, the peach was picked away by Li Zheng, the heir apparent who appeared out of thin air.
This is really beyond everyone's expectations.
At first they received a tip that the newly appointed river inspector was Prince Gong's eldest son, but they didn't take it seriously.
Not to mention this prince, even his good-for-nothing father, a border prince, didn't take him seriously.
In the end, who would have thought that as soon as the prince arrived, before he even reported to Jiang Zhen, he quietly established a city god and killed the river demon the next day.
It caught everyone off guard.
Now that I think about it, it really makes me feel that people are not as good as God.
"Okay, let's work low-key these two days and earn some money!"
Jiang Feiyu said, picked up the bowl and left.
Wang Sheng glanced at his mouth and asked, "What's wrong with him?"
"Shi Jin, there are some big rocks in front of you. You can break them open later and I'll give you money for processing them tonight!"
At this time, old man Yang, a river worker, came over with a rice bucket and shouted to Shi Jin.
"Hey, hey, Lao Yang, count me in, count me in!!"
When Wang Sheng heard this, he quickly picked up his rice bowl and chased after him.
Not long after, there was another noisy and lively sound of work on the river.
It was getting late, and the sound of work-ending gongs could be heard from the river.
After everyone had dinner, paid their wages, and returned to Yuyang City with lanterns in hand.
"I asked for more money, so I added thirty cents, which is not enough for a drink."
Wang Sheng weighed the copper coins in his hand and couldn't help but complain.
Then he took out a bulging money bag from his arms and put it in his hand. The money bag was very unique, made of pink cloth and embroidered with two peonies.
When I weighed it in my hand, I heard a rustling sound in the money bag.
"hey-hey!"
Hearing the sound of money rubbing inside, Wang Sheng's bitter gourd face finally showed a faint smile.
"Finally, it's enough money. Unfortunately, if I had a few more days, I could still make a lot of money for drinking."
Thinking of leaving the day after tomorrow, Wang Sheng was really reluctant to leave.
"Huh!"
At this time, Wang Sheng suddenly glanced at him and saw a man walking towards the river from a distance.
The night was dark, and ordinary people would not be able to see clearly, but since Wang Sheng was ranked among the twenty-eight constellations in the Moduo Sect, his strength was naturally extraordinary.
In addition to Spica, Kangsu, the fat and thin Tutuo, the rudder and the Dipper star Jiang Feiyu, oh, plus the newly arrived Shi Jin.
Wang Sheng prides himself on his strength, but he really has never conquered anyone.
The gleam in his eyes was far away, and he recognized it at a glance in the dark night. The figure was none other than the river inspector Li Zheng who had ruined their good deeds.
"Ha! There is a road to heaven but you don't take it. There is no door to hell and you just barge in!"
Wang Sheng's eyes overflowed with murderous intent.
He had long been filled with hatred for this boy. If the helmsman hadn't repeatedly told him that there was a city god suppressing luck in Yuyang City, and there were countless masters hiding in the dark, Wang Sheng would have been unable to restrain himself and wanted to take this boy's life.
Unexpectedly, he was about to leave Yuyang City. This kid, in the middle of the night, didn't sleep, and actually ran to the edge of the river alone.
"Hehe, now that there is no City God, let me see who can protect you!"
After thinking about this, Wang Sheng calmly took a few steps back and jumped into the grass.
"Um!!"
Shi Jin, who was walking in front, twitched his ears slightly, looked back, and saw Wang Sheng's leaving figure. Seeing this, Shi Jin frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then followed him calmly.
The water is sparkling, and the cool breeze blows away, sweeping away the sweltering heat brought by summer. People can't help but take a deep breath, and the whole person becomes energetic.
Xu Tong walked to the river step by step, stepped on the boat that had been prepared long ago, and rowed alone along the river to the middle of the river.
There is a small island not far in the middle of the river. The last time I went to kill the tortoise, I noticed that there were only two trees on this small place.
The reason why I came here is not only because it is in the center of the river, but also because it is out of sight, and there are many people in Yuyang City.
If anything changes during the breakthrough, no one will notice it.
After tying the boat to a rock and taking off his clothes, Xu Tong shook his body and saw patches of dark black scales growing under his skin.
With the body of a chilong, Xu Tong did not worry about any accidents happening to him underwater, so he took the [Xuan Yuan Guihua Pill] from the prop book
Take it out and put it in your hand.
When the golden elixir fell, the emerald-colored patterns on it reflected on the water, causing the surrounding river water to create strange ripples.
Xu Tong held the elixir in his mouth, then jumped into the water.
"Plop~"
In the dim water, his figure was like a sharp sword piercing the bottom of the water. Just as he thought, in the state of Chilong body, not only did he have no influence in the water, but he felt like a fish in water.
Each scale on the body opens and closes slightly, forming a unique air flow, which allows it to move quickly while submerged underwater, and even squeeze out the air in the water, forming a unique aura to ensure that one can breathe calmly.
He found a rock and leaned his back on it. After Xu Tong swallowed the elixir in his mouth, within a moment, wisps of emerald light began to spread along the gaps in his scales. In a moment,
